Thanks for all the recs so far, definitely have some books to check out now. I have already read the Aubrey/Maturin series, but will definitely look into the Bolitho and Ramage series. I have read the first of the Romances by Brust, enjoyed it, but I have to be in the right mood to read them as they require more in depth reading than the Taltos books. I'll check out the Garret series as I really liked the Black Company. Thanks again for the recs, should keep me busy for awhile
